President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, speaking on Friday at the Summit of CIS Heads of State in Bishkek, emphasized that Ashgabat considers the intensification of economic cooperation to be a priority area of partnership within the Commonwealth.
“We consider the activation of cooperation in the economy to be a priority area of our partnership,” the head of Turkmenistan said.
“As you know, in 2019 in Ashgabat, at a meeting of the Council of Heads of State of the CIS, the Declaration on Strategic Economic Cooperation of the Commonwealth Member States, developed at the initiative of Turkmenistan, was signed, which formed the basis of the later adopted CIS Economic Development Strategy until 2030,” Serdar Berdimuhamedov noted.
The President recalled that this strategy provides for close cooperation in the areas of trade, industrial cooperation, transport, energy, investment and other priority sectors.
“I am confident in the relevance for the Commonwealth states of the projects initiated by the Turkmen side to diversify the energy, transport and communication components in the context of the development of large-scale infrastructure corridors North-South and East-West,” the head of Turkmenistan said.
“In this context, we attach great importance to increasing logistics capabilities with transport links in the Caspian-Black Sea and Asia-Pacific regions, as well as with the Gulf and Middle East countries,” Serdar Berdimuhamedov claimed.
